According to the wikipedia page on least squares, QR reduction is supposed to be more numerically stable than faster approaches. But we can solve the Polynomial regression example exactly, so I am not sure that that example is a good one for QR reduction least squares fitting. --Rdm 16:34, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
